1. An automation and motion control system for the entertainment industry to dynamically control a plurality of objects, the automation and motion control system comprising:

  • a plurality of nodes in communication with each other over a network, wherein each node of the plurality of nodes corresponds to at least one item of equipment used to a control an object of the plurality of objects, wherein each node of the plurality of nodes comprising a microprocessor and a memory device, wherein the memory device comprise node processes and at least one process executable by the microprocessor, andwherein the memory device store program instructions that are executable by the microprocessor to;

    determine whether an input has been received at a node the plurality of nodes of the automation and control system,in response to the determination, determine, by the node, whether the received input is expected,in response to the input being expected, execute an associated process or processes of the node processes,otherwise, classify the received input as a random input, wherein the random input does not satisfy a specification of a pending process,identify, by the node, at least one process of the node processes associated with the random of the input, andexecute, by the node, the identified at least one process to adapt the operation of the automation and motion control system to the random input.
